    Re: Bosch Upright Freezer,help fitting new drawer flap

    It’s quite possible the bearers are a slide fit to the liner with a hidden barb holding them in place. Best bet is wait for one of the BSH (bosch) guys to come along…they may well know….

    Re: bosch leak dishwasher

    Ok…just be careful how you screw it back up…the new sumps have an instruction leaflet detailing the order on which you do them…can’t honestly remember which order but I think it may be the front two first?

    Re: Whirlpool Door Seal keeps falling off

    Best bet is to call the manufacturer…i assume you haven’t been putting up with this for years?!

    Or…glue it with a small amount of contact adhesive which could potentially invalidate your warranty…

    Yes they are expensive and no not really. The aquastop has a valve at the tap end (this is what you’ve been metering) so that would need to be replaced to control the inflow…there’s no facility on the machine to mount one directly

    Re: bosch leak dishwasher

    I have had only one but a more common leak is the sump/tub seal especially at the rear where the distributor is. If thats the case it will need a new plastic sump which comes with a new seal…

    Re: Bosch Upright Freezer,help fitting new drawer flap

    Not sure on this model but some you can dismount the bearers from the liner usually with just one screw but most these days are bonded on. If thats the case then the only option is to carefully flex the flap to get it in.

    Have a good look at the bearers and see if you can see how they attach to the liner…post a pic if you are unsure?

    Re: miele w3830 washing machine-fill light flashing

    Does it let in any water at all on the rinse and does this one have an aquastop? I did have one some time ago that was giving a very slow fill (water pressure was a bit marginal) and it would time out intermittently…new aquastop doubled the flow rate despite the low pressure. Could be it times out with the higher level of rinse?

    Probably you’re only move really. There are ways to live test safely which is the only way to be sure but we couldn’t possibly advise that due to the inherent dangers.

    That reading sounds a little high although if it was faulty I’d expect it to be open circuit.

    Without live testing which is always a no no the only sure fire method to confirm is to replace it.

    It might of course confirm that it isn’t faulty…and then you’re looking at wiring or the pcb…

    Re: Neff S54M45X5GB/90 not filling with water

    You need to correctly set your meter to the 20k setting then disconnect the brown and blue wires to the aqustop then check the resistance between them. If you don’t disconnect them you will also be reading the supply circuitry.

    From memory you’ll be looking for something between 2 and 4k across it.

    Re: need help assessing wm noise please

    The noise appears from the video to coincide with the rotation of the drum which suggests it’s a foreign object caught behind it.

    You can try putting your head inside the drum and rotate it by hand…it can be difficult but you may be able to hear the location of the noise…most likely near the bottom.

    If you’re lucky you may be able to see it through the holes in the drum using a torch.

    Where it is exactly will determine which access you need to remove it.

    Re: Siemens Integrated dishwasher anti flood

    Yes it’s often that donut seal on the earlier models…on this one the seal is molded onto the wash pump…not had one of those leak yet but give it time 😆

    Re: Siemens machine – bearings shot – recommendations please

    Martin is quite correct…and I’ve heard anecdotally that a number of the WQ machines have had this problem. At two years old the manufacturer is unlikely to quibble….

    Re: Reset Bosch WAS

    I’ve had a number that seem to be reluctant to reset. The “turn to six then hold the spin button and turn to seven” is AFAIK is the correct procedure…just need persevere a few times.

    I suspect the new brushes don’t make a good initial contact so rotating the drum by hand a lot before trying might help…

    HTH?

    Re: Washign machine completely dead

    Well…anything is possible! The main thing is to follow a logical fault finding path…and logic says that if the main pcb has a live and neutral supply, and is known to be good then realistically that only leaves the display board…
